Finally! After years of waiting, El Pasoans will finally be able to get their hands on a Don Haskins bobblehead. The legendary Hall of Fame coach and basketball icon will be part of the UTEP Centennial celebration on Thursday, August 28th

El Paso is a college basketball city, and thanks to the late, great Don Haskins, Texas Western/UTEP still holds the title of the only Texas University to win an NCAA Tournament championship. A lot of fans of the UTEP Miners are hopeful that Coach Tim FLoyd can take us back to the NCAA tourney, despite a very rough start to the basketball season. But like the rest of the season, the CUSA Tournament is going to be a nail biter.

Five years ago today, El Paso was saddened to hear of the news of the passing of legendary UTEP Men's Basketball coach, Don Haskins. The Bear was beloved not only for his 1966 team that won the NCAA Championship, but for his love of the city that adopted him so many years ago.
